    darth what's the difference between the recovery2.img and flashing super without recovery2.img (I'm talking about the kashrus)?

        Hi1 I agree a new keyboard would be great, If you know of any good t9 12key keyboards that possibly also have the ability to install other langauges please share and I would try to add them in.

        Hi1 As far as the actual Rom themselves and the functionality and kosher of the phone there is no difference the potential issue with having the recovery2.img is that it is a potential backdoor.

        boruch meir I added 'With Apps Option 3' which removed texting, keeps gallery, and has Waze.

          I really just want the "Talk Only" option, but "Waze" only added.

              Just filtered my first phone and looks great!
              Just to put it out there for novices; if you wanted to leave the images in their folders and then just direct ADB to the correct path you can do that also. Additionally, you can also rename the super.bin for each type if you were planning on filtering more than one phone, and then just replace with your selected name in the command.

              Just want to know if [Login to see the link] would be interested in me creating a new custom splash screen that will look more official and pleasing. If you want send me the specs you need and I'll do my best. (I am not a graphics designer or anything, but I could probably conjure up something nice)

              Also, I hate to be nitpicky over the apps, but if you would be able to make options 1&2 with a sefardi siddur Like the one posted on apps4flip [Login to see the link], it would really be appreciated!

                  Flippy Thanx for the feedback! As far as a boot animation it needs to have a resolution of 240x320. It is made up of a bunch of pics played quickly (and the final pic plays on repeat until booting is finished), if you gave it to me as a gif I could use that also. I will try to switch the siddur when I have the time...

                      [Login to see the link] Can you change the default messaging app to a other one, for Example google messages.
                      Thanks.

                      Why am I not able to set USB connection to File Transfer, it stays on Charging?
                      Is there a way to fix that?

                      Thank you!

                          rock If debugging is on you can't change it.

                            meir I have no problem changing it not sure what you are talking about

                                ZTEGuy I had a problem changing it when I was in debugging mode and plugged in.

                                  rock I have encountered that issue, it had gone away for me a little while later. Which Rom are you using? Try rebooting and seeing if the phone connects as File Transfer.

                                    I think it would be helpful if you would preface each ROM name with either "Talk Only" or "Talk&Text" and keep the talk only and talk and text ROMs separate. I formatted it below, but I don't know if I got the Talk Only and Talk&Text parts correct.

                                        darth Tried rebooting, didn't help. I have the Waze, Weather, Siddur, Email and Hotspot ROM.

                                          ru4real Thanks! That looks really nice and clear.

                                          just installed extra apps option 1. is this supposed to include voice access? also how do I navigate waze? is it supposed to have a cursor?

                                            • darthLevel 6 - Platinum Elite Member

                                              joe1234 It does include voice access, to set it up follow directions from first post (in 'details' following Rom downloads). If you flashed the boot.img that you downloaded with the Rom then you will have a mouse. It is activated on and off by clicking the favorites key (Star)

                                                darth I did the whole process stated in the first post except for enabling voice access, and I didn't flash the boot.img. Can/should I do over the entire process and include these 2 things, or is there a way to just add these 2 things now? when I enable voice access, I dial ##33284## on the phone and then run the next step on the adb, correct? thanks!

                                                  • darthLevel 6 - Platinum Elite Member

                                                    joe1234 Yes you can do both things now.
